Yay for May! I am looking forward to so many exciting things this month. The start of the gardening season, welcoming two nieces, seeing my sister graduate from nursing school, and celebrating Jimmy’s birthday! I have a feeling it’s going to be a good month 🙂
Current book The Bible and the book I’ve been reading for the moms group I’m co-leading. Sadie has been enjoying this book a lot lately. She enjoys it so much that she always tries to eat the felt flaps, lol.
Current fun Spending time outside enjoying the spring weather in Pittsburgh.
Current app Our baby monitor app, Lollipop. Now that Sadie is sleeping in her crib more(!!), it’s fun to see what positions she falls asleep in. I felt bad she fell asleep with her leg poking out of the slats of her crib, but I also didn’t want to wake her up to move her. It was quite the conundrum.
Current tv show Anything real estate related. Jimmy and I often put Sadie to bed and watch an episode of Island Life, Buying Alaska, Hawaii Life, or pretty much any show where people tour and buy homes.
Current blessing Sadie. I love seeing the world through her eyes. She inspires me in so many ways.
Current obsession Buying matching outfits for Sadie, Remi (my brother and sister-in-law’s daughter), and Caroline (my sister and brother-in-law’s daughter) for when Remi and Caroline arrive this month!
Current goal Getting the garden ready for planting later this month. I have a lot of weeding ahead of me, lol.
Current joy Birds, birds, and more birds. The obsession is at an all time high! The other night Jimmy said “Allie… step away from the window… I saw you look out there like fifteen times in the past minute” haha.
Current food Jasmine rice! I’d never tried it until recently and now I’m hooked. Also having lots of salmon, wraps, chocolate pancakes, corn on the cob, and runny egg sandwiches lately.
Current baked good I made an apple pie over the weekend! I need to pick up some yeast because I want to make soft pretzels with honey mustard dipping sauce. We ate at a restaurant in the Outer Banks with a pretzel appetizer like that, and I’ve been dreaming of recreating it ever since.
Current excitement Meeting my nieces this month. I’m constantly thinking about the moment I get to lay eyes on them and I cannot wait!
Current laugh Jimmy came home from work while I was feeding Sadie in her nursery. He wanted to hang out and talk with me, but there was no where comfortable to sit so this happened…
Current baby product Pacifier clips. Sadie doesn’t take a pacifier, but we’ve been using the clips to attach toys to her so she doesn’t drop them on the floor 🙂
Current pet product Friskies Lil’ Soups for Malcolm. I randomly bought one on a whim and he loved it!
Current project Jimmy is making steel edging for our back and side yard landscaping!
Living My Full Life 
Awesome Allie thank you for sharing!
Thanks for reading, Dad! I love you! ❤
Jimmy in the crib is hilarious! It looks like he comfortably fits too haha. The matching outfits for Sadie and her cousins are going to be so cute!!
Current blessing is not running after the race on Sunday. It’s always good to have a break in life from anything you enjoy to get ready again.
He seriously cracks me up on the daily! He said it was comfy in there, haha. I can’t wait to see the girls in their matching outfits! Hopefully I’ll get a picture soon once Caroline and Remi are born 🙂
So glad you can have a break from running for a bit! Can’t wait to read about how your race went!
We love watching real estate shows also!! We have dreams of buying a house one day, so it’s inspiring to us and those shows are also just addicting, haha!
That photo of Jimmy in the crib is too funny!
I’m so glad I’m not the only one majorly into real estate shows, ha! They really are addicting and inspiring! They give us so many ideas for our house or any future house 🙂
Jimmy in the crib had me cracking up! He is too much!
Ahh tons of exciting things coming!! Ok please pass on a HUGE congrats to your sister for me. Graduating from nursing school is no small feat. Please tell her to never hesitate to reach out if she has any questions about job apps/ NCLEX/ starting nursing. ❤ Lollipop is such a cute name for an app. Those matching outfits are TOO cute. Ahhh, we’ve been on a Jasmine Rice kick too lately! Uncle Ben’s rice is the. Best. Bar nun! LOL- I am cracking up at Jimmy in the crib- that’s too funny. Thanks for sharing, Allie! So much fun to read this. Something current: Well, I’m heading back for my sister’s bridal shower this weekend! I’m pretty excited. And ya know why? (Well besides the obvious)…. I get to shop at Aldi!!! I am making most of the food Saturday, so I am gonna do a trip to Aldi for the ingredients- you can probably guess that I’m pretty pumped! It’s been a minute ❤
All sorts of exciting things going on over here! I passed on your congrats and offer for help with nursing and she said thank you! She was so happy and delighted that you care and were thinking of her!

Jimmy in the crib is hilarious! Glad he found a comfy spot. 😉
Also, I am all the heart eyes for all the matching outfits for the cousins! I just love that the three girls are all going to grow up so close together in age!
He had me cracking up because he thought it was no biggie to just hop in Sadie’s crib! YAY for matching outfits. I cannot wait for the cousins to be best buds as they grow up 🙂
Lol that photo of Sadie in the crib with her leg in the slats is too freakin’ hilarious but, I think the one of Jimmy cracked me up even more! I also laughed about him telling you to step away from the window. 😂 I love that you’re buying matching outfits for all the baby girls, that’s sooo cute!

We use that Jasmine rice packets! And the Basmati ones. I also highly recommend some rice with quinoa packs we get at Costco. I forget the brand but if you’re interested I’ll in my cabinets!
He had me cracking up when he hopped in there like it was no biggie!
I need to try the basmati rice packets! Let me know the brand of the rice and quinoa packs you guys like! I’ll try and look for them!
